供应基地图层空间计算和边界提取流程图。新冠肺炎疫情使全球矿产资源供应受到较大影响,由于资源供应节点众多,风险因素复杂多变。陈其慎研究团队在全球矿产资源风险评价和对策研究基础上,首次提出了矿产资源供应链概念、内涵和评价方法。针对供应链开展风险评价,有助于目标国全面掌握矿产资源供应链风险隐患。根据不同预警级别,分级分类制定安全预案,以保障矿产资源持续稳定供应。相关成果详见本期159-166页。本专辑介绍了中国地质科学院矿产资源研究所陈其慎等多个团队在战略性矿产研究中取得的最新认识和进展。

Spatial calculation and boundary extraction flowchart of the supply base layer.The Covid-19 epidemic has greatly affected the supply of global mineral resources.Due to the numerous resource supply nodes,the risk factors are complex and changeable.On the basis of global mineral resource risk assessment and countermeasures,the research team led by CHEN Qi-shen has proposed for the first time the concept,connotation and evaluation method of mineral resource supply chain.Risk assessment of the supply chain will help target countries to fully grasp the hidden risks of the mineral resources supply chain.Safety plans could be formulated according to different levels of early warning so as to ensure a sustainable and stable supply of mineral resources.For details,see pp.159-166 of this issue.This special issue introduces the latest understanding and progress made in strategic mineral research by CHEN Qi-shen’s research team and some other teams from the Institute of Mineral Resources,Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences.
